"Would I want strikes in Mexico to stop drugs? OK with me, whatever we have to do to stop drugs, Trump said on Monday, adding that he's not happy with Mexico and that the US government has drug corridors from Mexico under major surveillance."
"We are not going to ask for it because we do not want intervention from any foreign government, she said."
"The last time the United States came to intervene in Mexico, they took half of the territory."
"I have great respect for the president, a woman that I think is a tremendous woman, Trump said of Sheinbaum in October. She's a very brave woman, but Mexico is run by the cartels."
Claudia Sheinbaum dismissed Donald Trump's threat of military action against drug cartels inside Mexico, stating such strikes will not occur. Trump threatened to authorize strikes, expressed displeasure with Mexico, and claimed US authorities have drug corridors under major surveillance. The US later clarified any intervention would require Mexico's permission. Sheinbaum insisted Mexico will not request foreign intervention and warned that prior US intervention resulted in Mexico losing territory. Sheinbaum has repeatedly rejected offers of US troop deployment and maintained calm, firm bilateral relations while Trump continues to pressure Mexico on drugs and migrants and deploys a naval armada nearby.
